Abstract

Ensuring and organising access to educational materials in the electronic environment is an important factor in determining realistic requests for development and advancement of education. If we want to participate in European processes and knowledge society, then ensuring access to educational materials across the telecommunications flow is the part in which we need to participate with solutions of our own. In the paper the authors will concentrate on organising and presenting knowledge and information in the electronic environment, on the level of postsecondary education. The context of IT is dealt with from the perspective of achieving free access to information and knowledge and providing information for all. This altogether involves planning and creating repository of educational materials, their description and indexing while implementing current metadata standards, attitude analysis of both teaching staff and students, as well as taking into consideration the concept of freedom of access to information versus copyright protection.
